My 2016 JB

Post by Robert Marcus »

My used but utterly pristine G&L Jb, Metallic Grey Frost and on headstock, ebony fretboard, was just set up perfectly with Rotosound ga. 50-110. It is a total and satisfying instrument to play because of Alnico pick-ups, the funk of the ebony, and expert design and intonation. It took me two days of adjusting everything to accommodate the Rotosounds which I was unable to do with the EB MusicMan Stingray Classic 4, birdseye maple neck. The nut on the E string was plain too high to even play the low F and I refused to pay someone to mess with it because either an instrument can accommodate any and all strings and are built accordingly. If the JB is the Fender Jazz fully realized, then this is it in every aspect.
